UTAH AND STATEHOOD.

The question OF Statehood is the all
absorbing topic in Utah. The Mormons
are for it, the Gentiles against it. The
Constitution recently framed by a Nor
mon Convention contains a clause that
polypamy shall never be tolerated in the
new State. This is all we'll enough. Per
haps it is put forth in some degree OF
good faith. We know nothing about that,
nor do we care anything about it. Polyg'
amy is but one of the questions in Utah,
and the one of least Importance. There
are two burning issues there. Polygamy
the least, church domination the great.
est. Polygamy is a moral question, and
might, if there were no other, be LETT to
moral forces to overthrow it, while
church domination is a political ques-
tion, going directly to the foundation OF
the Government itself. The Constitution
of the United States says there shall be no
form of established religion in this coun-
try. That is precisely what they have
got through and through in Utah Terri.
tory. 1t is the thing Of all others that
every true, liberty-loving American
must resent, being contrary to the deep
est laid principles Of our American sys'
tenn. 1t is the thing that so CRATES on
the nerves of every independent citizen
who comes in contact with it. Church
and State-the church above the State
is how the matter stands in Utah. NO
amount of wordy declaration in q con-
vention composed of men who have
spent their lives in establishing this or.
der of things in Utah can wipe out in a
day all the evil consequences to society
springing from it. The attempt is "too
previous" If wen accepted in good
faith it would require years to incul-
cate in the dyed.in-the.wool Mormon
mind, a decent respect for the powers o.
tine State as against those Of the church
that the State is first and highest, the
church last and lowest. The very re.
verse of this is what has been taught for
forty years, and is still being taught in
Utah. AS we'll expect to change the
spots of the leopard by a declaration in
o so.called Constitution as to hope to
change the Mormon people on this ques-
ton. And We doubt if any change is
contemplated in absolute good faith.
State government. local self.government,
is the main point in view, and when
once attained the Mormon Church can
snap it's fingers at the United States Gov.
eminent and the GENTLE population of
Utah with perfect IMMUNITY. But moth
ing of this kind is likely to happen.
Utah will not be admitted as a State of
the Union, by the coming Congress or
any other for twenty years to come. It
must Americanize itself first, and that is
a big job requiring q long time. The
proper place for Utah is in the rear
Of the procession until the Mormon
Church shall have fully atoned for all of
its iniquities of forty years past.

Sudden Changes of Climate.

Popular Science Monthly.
II blizzard ofunusual severity were
coming from the Northwest that would
send the thermometer down 80 deg.
or 70 deg. in three hours, we should
expect great increase of pneumonia
or other respiratory diseases, result
inc in deaths. Now instead OF three
hours, suppose the mercury was to
drop 60 deg. in three minutes-or
take another step in fancy, and sup
pose this great change to take place IN
three seconds-what would likely be
the effect OF health? And yet we bring
about, artificially changes to ourselves
quite rs sudden and as severe rs this.
We make an artificial climatein our
houses. We live indoors in an atmos-
phere heated by stoves, furnaces or
steam.pipes to 10 or 80 deg,
and we pass from our parlor to hall
so heated into the open air. At a step,
literally in breath, the temperature
OF the air has, for us, dropped 90 to
20 deg. We may put on an extra
coat or shawl and shield the outside
OF the body and chest, but we can not
shield the delicate Innings and men,
branes of the air passages, the bron-
chial tubes, the lung cells. Naked,
they receive the full force OF the change
the last breath at 20 deg, the next
at freezing or zero-and all unprepar-
ed. We have been sitting perhaps for
hours, in tropical atmosphere; nay,
worse, in an atmosphere deprived by
hot iron surfaces OF it's ozone and
natural refreshing and braclng quail
ties. Our lungs are all relaxed, debili-
tated, unstrung; and in this condition
the cold air strikes them perhaps 90
deg. below what they are gradual
ed TO and prepared for. is
it strange if pneumonia and bronchi-
tis are at hand? If we are in
the West Indies, or even. in Florida,
and wish to come North I'm winter, we
try to make the change gradual. But
in our houses we keep up n tropical
climate, or worse, for we have not the
freshness OF air that prevails
IN an open tropical atmosphere,
and we step at once into an
atmosphere as much colder as 40 de-
rrees difference of latitude will make
il. 1t is in effect going from Cuba to
Icelan l-or at least TO New Nork-at
a step, and we make the journey per-
haps a Dozen times aday. And often,
while we are still shut up in our domi-
ciliairy Cuban climate, Iceland comes
down upon us from an open window.
Especially is this likely to occur IN
school, where children will instructive
" seek to get breath of fresh air
that has not had all its natural re.
freshlne qualities quite cooked out OF
il by hot stoves, furnaces or steam
pipes. And all these sudden changes
and shocks OF cold come upon us
while the whole system has its vitality
and powers Of resistance cauced down
20 the low nccesfities Of a tropical

This she poured out, mingled with
thanks and blessings for Kitty, and
then, taking the child in her arms,
she went away, and Kitty returned to
the picnic.
They were in the midst OF dinner
when she arrived and in high glee.
Lionel Bacon was there, and Agnes
was happy with him at her side. A
shout greeted Kittie's appearance, for
Agnes had told the story with color
ing OF her own.
"Where is the foundlingP" cried a
voice. 1--WE are dying to see her, foI
we have resolved to adopt her and
call her the daughter OF the picnic"
Kittie's face flushed, but she rep!'ei,
quietly:
81 am sorry that you will not be
able to carry out your praiseworthy
design, but | delivered the baby to
ner nurse, who will restore her to her
family"
The day after the picnic Agnes was
in q bad humor. Lionel had not pro-
posed; in fact, he had decidedly re-
laxed his attention to her, and, in ad.
dition to this, she had gotten badcoat
OF sunburn and was almost sure she
had discovered q freckle. She lounged
listlessly. around the room, comfort.
ing herself by saying ill-natured things
to Kittie, who bore them with com.
mendable patience. till they were both
attracted by the sound OF carriage
OF the gate. Agnes FASTENED to tine
window and exclaimed:
81 declare, Kit, ii it isn't Bacon's
carriage, and the coachman is bring
ing n note. What can it mean?"
She put out her hand to take the
note as the maid brought it in; but,
to the surprise OF both, it was for Kit
tie, who opened it and read aloud;
Ny DEAR Miss KITTIE-I have just
learned from my brother how much /
am indebted to you for your kindness
to baby yesterday. / should have
come to you myself, but am confined
10 the house with cold, and in con-
sideration of this beg you will return
with the carriage, that | may tell the
gratitude am unable to write
Yours, affectionately,
MARTHA BACON.
Kittie ceased reading and Agnes
broke out
"Heavensl Who could have dream
ed that dirty little imp was her child?
have indeed thrown away my fate,
for Lionel Bacon will never enter this
house again" And she burst into a
flood OF tears.
Agnes modification was deep and
bitter, but she soon healed it by max
ing new conquests. She was, however,
wrong in one thing. Lionel Bacon
did enter the house again, and when
the next spring time came he took
from it little Kittie, to make her his
wife. She found her fate at the fairy

AppIication of Manure.

Not only is the preservation of the
manure with minimum loss a matter of
great importance, but application to the
SOIL, or to crops, is also an important
matter. Science would, perhaps. indi-
cate that to spread it upon the soil lust

mers would seem TO afford evidence that
there are some things which chemists
have not yet satisfactorily explained.
Since the ordinary rotation Of crops.
90 generally adopted in Western New
York, has been practiced, that is. ma
nure upon clover and timothy sod fol-
lowed by barley and oats. those crops bv

mers have practiced hauling out their
